STATISTICS OF SUICIDE.

1t is said that the proportion OF suicides
are less in the class OF persons from 60 to
70 years OF age than in the class ranging
from As to 90 years OF age. One would
suppose that the last named class would
be less liable to consider life burden
than the first, and would shrink from
shuflling off this mortal coil while largely
free from the infrmities OF age. One
reason must be that at about the age OF
fifty most persons awake to the fact that
the anticipations Of youth have failed
to be realized, and hopeless OF the future
the less sanguine, unmindful OF the sup
ports OF a Christian philosophy which
points to the compensations OF the future,
rush unbidden into the presence OF their
Maker. The boundary line OF 55 or 60
years OF age once passed, the inevitable
is accepted with more or less grace, and
thoughtful minds, protiting by the past
and hopeful for the future, enter the
portals of a new and more equable life in
which the impulsiveness Of youth is tenn
pered by the moderation and experience
of age. These are the harvest days of a
mans life; why should he seek to shorten
them by self-murder?

PACIFIC COAST COMMISSIONER

The people of Nevada are undoubtedly
more interested in the workings OF the
Interstate Commerce BILL which was
signed by the President yesterday and is
now law, than the citizens Of any other
State in the Union, in proportion to their
numbers. President Cleveland has
expressed his willingness to APP
point representative from each
of the five sections viz. the New
England, Middle, Southern, West
ern and Pacific Coast States. Nevada in
this matter certainly deserves recogni-
tion, and has greater claims than either
California or Oregon. That being the
case, the DEMOCRAT suggests the name
OF Ex-Governor Jewett w. Adams
for the position. As Governor and
Lieutenant-G Governor OF the State
while he has always stood by the people
as against the railroad corporations, his
course has always been fair and conserva-
tive towards the latter. While favoring
such legislation as would protect his
constituents against burdensome charges
and unjust discrimination, he has never
stopped to demagogism by pushing
matters to extremes to gain the applause
OF the element which would, il it pos
sessed the power, discriminate as un-
justly against the railroad corporations as
did the latter against the people. He is
fully acquainted with the matters upon
which he would be called upon
to act, possesses excellent judgment,
and reputation for personal and official
integrity which would inspire implicit
confidence in his actions. No better or
more deserving person could be selected
to represent the Pacific Coast upon the
Commission

equally repugnant to the letter and spirit
of our institutions and to the people at
large. The above resolution embodies
the spirit of monopoly, and is in direct
opposition to the published opinions of
Mr.. Powderly, the executive head Of the
Knights Of Labor, who favors arbitration
rather than strikes. The effect Of action
in accordance with the obnoxious resolu-
tion, will be the employment Of product
i've workers now outside of the members
OF associated labor unions. This will be
easy enough in connection with unsklled
labor, as may be seen in the case
Of coal beavers and freight handlers on
the docks in New York and New Jersey.
In the case OF a combination of the vari-
GUS trades, it becomes more complicated,
because skilled laborers on strike would
indeed stop the wheels of industry on
their line of work Arbitration and CO.
operation are the two levers, the long
arms of which are in the hands OF work
ingmen, with which to bring about legiti-
mate reforms

UTAH AS A MINERAL COUNTRY

Treating OF the great variety OF valuable
mineral products OF Utah waiting for
profitable development, circular No.
3, OF the d. & X. G. Railroad,
mentions large deposits of apatite
rich in phosphates and suitable for
artificial manures or fertilizers. At
present this valuable article is imported
from Canada, none having been found in
this country in quantity suitable for
profitable development, except in
these recent discoveries in Utah.
When movement now on foot
is fairly inaugurated, these deposits
will be opened and heavy shipments may
be expected which will add to our grow
ing income from mineral sources. In
connection with the useful minerals,
which are found in Utah in quality and
quantity superior to any other district OF
equal area on the continent, we may
mention sulphur, which, at the mines
and works at Cove Creek, in Southern
Utah. is found in beds and deposits suifi-
cient to supply the worlds demand.
Some OF it is absolutely pure, and it can
be mined and refined 50 cheaply that, in
the immediate future, it must drive all"
from the market In short, in connection
with veins and deposits OF precious and
useful minerals, Utah beats the world.

THUNDER ALL AROUND THE SKY

1t is proposed, in the Nevada Legisla-
ture, to amend the constitution of that
State, SO that a test oath against polygamy
and bigamy shall be required as pre-
cedent to the right to vote. Should the
constitution be thus amended, Nevada
would place herself in organic hostility to
the aiders and abettors of the anti
American clique, whose political aim
has been to erect polygamic kingdom
in the heart OF this continent 1t will be
fair notice to the disloyal hierarchy,
that State and National authority
have combined to crush out Ash
attic barbarism, and to put an
end forever to the nolitiral aspirations of
its priestly supporters. Whenever it has
the power this hierarchy makes no con-
cession whatever to any other element,
but carries everything before it with
high hand and naughty head. When its
servile subjects are in the minority, it
makes the best terms it can with either
OF the principal political parties, without
regard to any other principle than the
utilization to the best advantage OF its
strength for the benefit OF itself. The
Mormon vote has long been disturbing
factor in the politics OF Nevada, and both
parties are heartily sick and tired OF
trucking to such an unprincipled
and unreliable element, as is in
dicated by the present action OF
the Legislature OF that State.
II is to- be regretted that the cumbrous
machinery OF the present Constitution
requires four years to effect an amend
ment to the fundamental law. Other
wise more immediate relief would be
afforded. 1t is gratifying as it is to notice
that our neighbors are at last awakened
to the necessity OF action in this matter,
and that they fully realize the danger OF
permitting the head OF the Mormon
Church to control voting faction, which
in close elections constitutes the balance
OF power in the State.

THE RIGHT WAY.

A representative committee OF the
United Labor party recently resolved,
That il, in the opinion OF those now
conducting the strike lin New York; it
becomes necessary to call on, to strike,
men OF other branches OF industry al
fliated with our party, we recommend
that they obey the summons, even to
the point Of stopping all the wheels
OF industry, and in time they may learn
how necessary to society the producing
workers are" Monopolies, whether en-
gineered by capitalists or laborers, are

GOVERNOR WEST evinced his good
sense in discouraging public reception
in his honor upon his return from Wash
ington. The people of the Territory fully
appreciate the good work accomplished
by the Governor, and all OF the
parade, brass bands, speech-making and
fuss and feathers OF public demonstra-
ton would not manifest it more clearly
than it has already been done in more
quiet and unostentatious manner. His
modesty is another assurance that he
will be equal to the emergency,
when the time comes for him to assume
the heavy responsibilities which will he
imposed upon his official position by the
passage OF the Tucker bill-graver re-
sponsibilities than were ever placed upon
the Governor OF any State or Territory in
the history of tie Nation.

SENATOR HoAR, with remarks often
sive to Senator Beck, moved an amend
ment in the nature OF substitute ior
Beck's Railroad Attorney bill, which with
some notifications finally passed the
Senate. Hoar attempted to kill his own
amendment by offering another, max
ing it unlawful for members Of Congress to
hold real estate in the District OF Column
bia Except as residences). Teller, with
characteristic devotion to corporation in
terests, attempted to raise false issues
with Beck and misrepresented the latter,
who promptly declared Teller's state
ments to be false. If Teller is not paid
attorney for railway corporations, it is
evident that his sympathies are with
them rather than with the people.

THE Interstate Commerce bill has
been signed by the President, and it has
become law, to go into operation the
LIST OF July next. Attorney-General
Garland furnished the President with a
written opinion, covering the various pro-
visions of the law and favorable to it,.
Two years ago Garland, in the Senate, OPP
posed Reagan's Interstate Commerce bill
on the ground that it gave too much
legislative and judicial power to the
Commissioners. The present bill he
claims does not confer judicial power on
the Commission, and except in connec-
ton with the fourth section, gives only
such legislative power as sustained prece-
dents will warrant.

Mr.. JOEL CHANDLER HARRIS has wor
his literary reputation as delineator Of
negro character in connection with his
sketches of Southern life, rather than as
a brilliant editor. He says that his
stories were "sort of recreation and
relief from the pressure and grind OF
editorial writing" 1t is said that he
burns the midnight oil at the shrine OF
his novel and "grinds" at his editorial
writing during the day. Mr.. Harris, in
attempting to ride Grind" the donkey,
and Recreation" the novel race horse,
at the same time, is bound to fall to the
ground; while the readers OF either the
novel or the editorial will have to suffer.

Two years ago nearly every Federal

Republicans. Now the division is about
equal between the two parties, and still
some OF our Republican friends are not

ANNEXATION OF CANADA.

1t is reported that u strong movement
Exists in Canada for the annexation of
the Dominion to the United States.
The report may be incorrect, but it
would not be surprising if such a, move
ment should be strongly supported. A
manufacturer of Ontario writes that he
believes the future prosperity of the
province depends on joining tue United
States. 1.-The people in my trade across
the border" he says, "ninke nearly 100
per cent more thanI do with the same
Number OF employees" The story he
relutes of secret organization includ-
i:ig three-fiiths OF. the leading men of
many districts to Push the annexation
movement sounds somewhat apocryphnl
and his assertion that "hy the next gen.
cral eleotioR i'll the States we want to be
ready. 70 ask you to take us into the
American Union" is undoubtedly over
sapguine. The United States stands on
this question just MS OBJ the admission
of Nova Scotiu. We are ready to well
come Canada if Canada applies for ad-
plission of her own free will; but this
government cannot, officially encourage
such course. But the unnexationists
